For some reason, KoA didn't put the grip length on the Gunther sword. Does anyone happen to know what it is?

I saw in another thread that Deepeeka does all their (single-hand, presumably) grips at 10cm, or just shy of 4".
I'd wager this is true for this model, but will defer to anyone with one in-hand.

If you can, can you also measure how thick and how wide the guard is, and how thick, wide, and tall the lower guard/pommel is? Thanks!

The Grip is 4 inches
If you can, can you also measure how thick (32 mm) and how wide (3' 3/4) the guard is, and how thick (2''), wide (3'' 1/4), and tall (2'')the lower guard/pommel is?

So that I am bugging someone other than just Barahir...
The measurements I still am unsure of that I am interested in: what are the thicknesses of the upper and lower guard? Shown here to illustrate just what that means:

Since I read this thread while looking for info on the Gunther, I figured I would answer the above.
The upper guard (pommel end of hilt) I measured at about 1.08" thick, 3.3" wide and about 0.67" high. The pommel starts about 2.9" wide and tapers to a point around 1.4" above the upper guard and is roughly 1" wide at the bottom and tapers to a point.
The lower guard (blade end of hilt) is about 1.09" thick, 3.8" wide and about .677" high
Grip is just a hair shy of 4", it is about 1.45" wide at the lower guard, tapering to about 1.133" where it meets the upper guard/pommel and is about .885" thick.
Deepeeka's grip lengths do vary by model...a Hersir I bought and returned had a grip length of a little over 4.25".
Unlike the Hersir, the Gunther's pommel is not peened onto the tang. Per a video that Gagan, at Deepeeka sent me when I asked how the pommel is secured, the tang is threaded and a nut secures the upper guard to the tang. The triangular pommel is then attached to the upper guard and lightly peened.
